African Adventures, Day 22
Today was the day we built a compost for our new gardening area. We were piling things in a 5 by 5 area on top of each other. The components consisted of dry materials,wet, bulky, and soil. We first pu bulky on the bottom, then dry, then wet and then soil. We did this until it reached 5 feet high.First on the very bottom we put 6" bulky, then I would put 6" dry , the others would put 3" wet, and then 1" soil. After we got to the right height we put a stick in it. As soon as it softens and is ready the compost pile will go down to 3 feet. Most of the day consisted of gardening and such.. and major sunburns! Ow... sunscreen is wonderful ! Later on in the day Ben and I practiced the chorus to our new song and the day passed quickly!
